5 Game-Changing Hair Products to try in 2019

We’re always looking for a better shampoo or a hair
volumizer that can survive Singapore’s heat and humidity. But these breakthrough
hair products of 2019 didn’t just impress us – they blew our minds! They
actually have new technology and new ingredients that we have never seen
before.

Some of these hair product brands aren’t available in
Singapore, but they’re totally worth going online (or asking a friend who’s
abroad to bring one back for you). Be one of the first to try these best new
hair products this year!

IGK Foamo Holographic Hair Foam

Think of it as a hair mousse sprinkled with magic unicorn
dust. It has iridescent pigments that change from pink to teal or blue to
purple (depending on which kind you get) whenever you move your head.

Apply it to dry hair with a brush. (You can use your fingers, but we think this helps you control where you want it and you don’t get glitter all over our hands.) Unlike the usual glitter sprays it won’t get stuck into clumps. It goes on evenly, and will even help control flyaways and make your curls look bouncier and more defined.

Clairol Nice ’n Easy

You can’t beat the convenience, savings and instant gratification
of a home hair dye. But a lot of DIY hair colour kits can irritate the skin (watch
out for brands that contain p-phenylenediamine (PPD), which can trigger
allergic reactions on the hairline and neck.) Some women are also sensitive to p-toluenediamine
(PTD), which can make the scalp itchy.

“Clairol Nice ’n Easy is the only mass-market permanent hair
color I know of that’s free of both PPD and PTD,” says New York dermatologist
Ellen Marmur.

This hair dye has also won beauty awards for its lasting
colour. The tones are true to what’s on the box, and the finish is healthy and
shiny. If you’re new to hair dye, this
is a good

Paul Mitchell Neuro Angle Rod Curling Iron and Cone Curling Iron

If you curl your hair, you know the struggle of twisting
your wrist at all sorts of weird angles so you can get each strand and the
shape you want.

But this handy, bendy hair tool does all the work for you.
You can bend the base of the barrel into four different positions. So instead
of twisting your wrist, you twist your hair curling iron. Yay, curls without carpal
tunnel syndrome!

So why didn’t other hair products brands do this before? Because it’s not as easy as it sounds.
Paul Mitchell had to re-engineer the traditional iron so that it wouldn’t short
circuit or cut the heat flow at different angles.

If you style your hair regularly or want super-soft curls, this
is definitely worth adding to your Hair Products to buy in 2019.

Tresemmé Compressed Micro Mist Hair Spray

We always feel a bit guilty about using hair spray since the
gases that help create that fine, concentrated mist has compounds that can ruin
the environment. Unfortunately, hair spritzes just don’t give you that light,
even product. Everything clumps and get sticky.

But now you get that extra hold without blasting a hole in
the ozone layer. Tresemme uses a special technology that compresses the air
particles. We’ll skip the chemistry lesson, but the bottom line is you get that
fine mist that isn’t too wet or too light. You get lots of hold with just one
spray, and your hair still moves and looks super natural.

Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Body Builder

A lot of hair styling products promise volume, but this baby
lets you set the volume. You just
turn the nozzle to adjust it form light body to big Hollywood curls. “I use
this on fine, thick, curly, and straight hair — I could never do that before
with just one spray,” says celebrity hairstylist DJ Quintero.

And if you really understood the research that went into this
hair volumizer, you know why this is definitely one of the best hair products
of 2019. Aside from the genius packaging, it tested hundreds of ingredients to
find the ones that would give the most shine and volume without clogging up the
nozzle or weighing down your hair. Totally high tech!
